RISE 2017 will feature two-and-a-half impactful days of learning about game-changing research, innovation, and science. The event focuses on what’s to come in engineered materials with leading-edge speakers, networking and the presentation of the annual RISE Innovation Award.

 

At RISE, technology scouts, business/product development professionals, innovation teams, product managers and research engineers will hear about new technologies and how they can be applied to their products and research innovations in consumer, industrial and institutional markets. The latest technical developments in related industries that can potentially be applied to engineered fabrics also will be presented.

 

Thought-leading speakers will present at RISE 2017 on such timely topics as:

 

• Functionalizing nonwoven fabrics;

• The impact of domestic natural gas on PE/PP costing;

• High tensile elastomeric polymers for hygiene products;

• New processes and uses for highloft nonwovens;

• Composites: graphene/carbon fiber for battery separators, geotextiles, films, and hydrogels; and

• Developments in conductive fibers and binder fibers.
